Bloody slugs, all they do is damage the wife's plants vegetables etc.

Do they perform any useful function whatsoever?

Are they more or less useful than Somalia?

They're food for Toads, and Toads can't eat Somalia.

My wife didn't want me to kill them despite them killing her beans. I had to collect them all and release them in the nearest field. Slugs make me so angry. What's the point of them!! Them and people on stilts.

Wikipedia says

[i]Limax maximus is capable of associative learning, specifically classical conditioning, because it is capable of aversion learning and other types of learning.[15][16] They can also detect that there are deficiencies in a nutritionally incomplete diet, if the essential amino acid methionine is experimentally removed from their food.[/i]

I just like running them over on my bike.

They seem to blatantly ignore all our weeds but munch everything else.

Is that a travelling case or display case?
If the former we will need some form of harness as a lack of limbs may be a problem.
If the latter, will they be alive or dead, live slugs will make the glas a bit slimy as they move about, dead slugs will dry up unless they are hermetically sealed in a moist atmosphere.
Think you have opened up a real can of er................slugs with this one!

If you go to my activity you can see my king of all slug picture. Not clever enough to repost it.

They make excellent temporary moustaches. The temporosity of which is defined by the athletic ability of aforementioned slug.

They don't like the weeds as much as my seedlings.

On wet/warm days like it is here, they hoover up all the doggy doo on the pavement. And they are food for some birds.
